protein expression

[Scientific Reports] The authors identified an important caveat when investigating TLR4-driven signaling in BLaER1 cells. They showed that this model contained glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor-deficient cells, which lacked CD14 surface expression when differentiated to monocytes, resulting in diminished LPS/TLR4 but not TLR7/TLR8 responsiveness.

[Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering] Researchers evaluated changes in extracellular vesicles morphology, concentration, and miRNA and protein expression in culture supernatants during the differentiation of iPSCs into neural lineage cells, for application in regenerative medicine for Parkinson's disease.

[Environmental Toxicology] Scientists showed that cell viability and proliferative PC3 and DU145 rates were effectively inhibited after norcantharidin-paclitaxel combination.

[Nutrition and Cancer] The authors evaluated the effects of sterculic oil from Sterculia apetala seeds on proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis in prostate cancer cells.

[Laboratory Investigation] Scientists investigated the mechanism by which curcumin affected the resistance of acute myeloid leukemia to Adriamycin by regulating HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) expression.

[Scientific Reports] Using a cohort of 66 COVID-19-positive women in late pregnancy, we correlated clinical parameters with disease severity, placental histopathology, and the expression of viral entry and Interferon-induced transmembrane antiviral transcripts.
